5. Smooth seas do not make skillful sailors
6. This too shall pass
7. To be tested is good. The challenged life may be the best therapist

The great philosopher Nietzsche said “what does not kill you makes you stronger.” He actually wished hardship on his friends and loved ones because he knew how valuable it was in making one grow and thrive. I often remember that & it helps me in my rough times. Stay Strong!
